I'm open to any manufacturer. Most everyone will scream Seasonic. I have a friend who's X650 has terrible coil whine, so no one gets it right everytime. I'm just hoping to get lucky finally and get a decent unit.

Well to be honest the HighPower units have a paradox

No one wants to buy them because they dont know how good they are

But how can you find out if anything is good or bad if no one wants to buy them?

On paper the Astro PT is a very good PSU that is better then the X in some areas

But no most are just going to take the obvious boring choice despite they could get something better if they just wanted to take a tiny risk

As you said everyone makes mistakes that goes for brands and OEM´s as well
